Hi Scott, Couple of points: - Are you using cloud? If yes.. which one? - Can you please paste the output of setup script? Wanna take a look at your parameters.

Hi, Scott. What about [this ticket](https://support.gluu.org/installation/4097/on-install-of-gluu-301-browser-java-error/)? Seems to be on the same topic. Which one do we need to attend?

I think I'll give a shot with google cloud engine + CentOS7. Will inform you on status.

So, it looks like if I do not install oxAuth-RP the java error goes away. I have 2 identical installs of Gluu 3.0.1 and redhat 7. The only difference is I went and installed oxAuth-rp on one and am now getting the JavaException error. Maybe a problem with seam?

That's interesting. We'll try to replicate it.

Did you test with a Google Cloud Compute VM. I have replicated the issue with and without oxAuth-rp with the oxAuth-rp on, I am still seeing the error.

Hi Scott, I couldn't try in Google Cloud engine but tested in all other platforms with Ubuntu 16.04 ( DigitalOcean, Rackspace, Amazon AWS, local VMware instance ). Would you mind to test somewhere else other than cloud engine?

Our company runs on GCP so we kind of need to have it run there if we are going to use it at all. We have a working Gluu server but are getting the same java error on authentication with javascript. I have an open ticket for that issue also. When I have some time I'll spin one up somewhere else just to complete the ticket. Thanks for your time,

It's unclear to me if the servers have 4GB of RAM.

The virtual machine I am using ist set up to have: - 2 Cores - 7 GB Memory - 14 GB Local SSD - I setup the gluu-server with Applications max ram 3072 as recommended. The free command for displaying RAM on the terminal shows: total | used | free | shared | buff/cache | available Mem: 7125436 | 3419996 | 2868164 | 9208 | 837276 | 3413204 Swap: 0 0 0 Still getting the Error!

>> 14 GB Local SSD Try at least 30GB disk space. For some technical issue we are unable to test Google/Azure cloud in community support. Sorry about that.

Hi, I get the exact same error on a fresh Ubuntu 16.04 VM on AWS. The VM has: 2 CPU cores, 4GB of RAM (out of which 0.8 is available), 40GB of disk space (out of which 37 is free). I have tested all kinds of configurations but they don't seem to have any effect.

We will check with AWS and share info with you. Thanks for your report.

I couldn't reproduce the issue. Gluu Server v3.0.2 in 16.04.1 LTS AWS. I tried with t2.large and made sure port inbound 443 is open.

Thanks for looking into this. I'm using a t2.medium which I don't think should matter... I'll still test with a t2.large and let you know how it goes. I'm sure port 443 is open as I wouldn't be able to reach the page at all otherwise... In the meantime, out of despair, I tried setting the server up with hostname set to it's public IP and the aws-provided DNS name, both with the same result.

We don't need to worry about any public/private IP thing actually; just hit enter. Gluu server script will take it's best suitable one. Regarding hostname, you can use anything like "test.something.com" during installation. After that... map this fake hostname with AWS public IP in your computer's /etc/hosts file.

So, after some trial and error, I managed to get it to work. I'm just not yet sure what exactly fixed it, so I'll do some investigation and report back with my findings.

I think I finally found the problem - I was setting the server's public IP in the IP address field. Then, when I "just hit enter" as suggested, it worked. Amazon's DNS as hostname also seems to work just fine. I really don't know why this is an issue, but perhaps mentioning it in the docs might help others avoid it. I also made another, somewhat strange observation: The setup script takes considerably longer to run when the error is present (after it prints "Downloading JCE 1.8 zip file..."). This made testing it quite painful, as I had to wait a long time every time I setup the server. Anyway, thanks for the help, it's greatly appreciated.

Thanks, Martin. Do you think you can you make a merge request on the docs with the additions you think would help others avoid this issue? I would review and merge them as appropriate. The source for the installation doc is [here](https://github.com/GluuFederation/docs-ce-prod/blob/3.0.2/3.0.2/source/installation-guide/install.md). Thanks in advance! Will

I certainly have no problem doing that, but it'll have to wait till tomorrow.

Thanks Martin, that solved my problem! I was also entering the server's public IP in the IP address filed. Now it's working, thanks, Markus

So I made a very simple [PR](https://github.com/GluuFederation/docs-ce-prod/pull/29), but I hope it's enough to point this out. Also, just for completeness, I found a mention about this in the Amazon AWS section of [Preparing VM](https://gluu.org/docs/ce/3.0.1/installation-guide/#amazon-aws). I'm not sure if it's the right place for it as it seems to relate to any setup, but I'll leave that for others to decide. Cheers Martin

Thanks for your contribution, Martin. We will leave the info in both places just in case.
